Stephen Colbert Booked Obama to Kick Off Penultimate Week of Report
Stephen Colbert has some bad news about the second-to-last week of The Colbert Report: He was unable to book legendary Seattle rockers The Presidents of the United States of America to play their classic '90s jam, "Peaches." Consolation prize, though: He landed actual president Barack Obama.
What we were already thinking of as the victory lap for The Rev. Sir Dr. Stephen T. Colbert, DFA, Colbert has officially dubbed "Mr. Colbert Goes to Washington, D.C. Ya Later Legislator: Partisan Is Such Sweet Sorrow: A Colbert Victory Lap: '014."
The Report will be in D.C. Monday for Obama's first time getting the Colbert bump. Other guests for the show's penultimate week include Into the Woods actor (and incoming Craig Ferguson successor) James Corden on Tuesday and Serial host Sarah Koenig on Wednesday.
